Hi fellow FCPers,
I play online at one site now but I'm ready to move ahead. What I need to know is........should I go for the different bonus
offers or go for rakeback? What is the criteria to use to decide? Amount you are able to deposit or how many hours you
can play? I know there are many players here that know the answer to this. Help out a newby........Thanks

Get Rakeback AND Bonus.

Look into sites on the Cryptologic network (if you aren't from the US), or Absolute Poker. Those are the two best deals I've found.

Well how much money do you have to work with? If you have an actual bankroll for a game bigger than 1/2limit or .25/.50nl than go for rakeback. A good site is www.rakebrain.com or www.taketherakeback.com if you don't have a good enough bankroll for those games then I would suggest you bonus whore around a bit and try and build a roll using deposit bonuses. When I first built my bankroll I used www.pokerlistings.com and went around to the various sites depositing for there deposit bonuses. I guess it is a little harder now with the lack of neteller but I'm sure its still your best bet.

Thanks for your input. What I am confused about is that the rakeback site says you have to join a site through them. If you
register through them....can you still get a deposit bonus? I know you can't do the "refer a friend" if you use a rakeback
site. I'm just getting statred and this stuff is overwhelming. I don't want to get ahead of myself and make mistakes.

Thanks again

I've done Refer a Friend, Rakeback, and Deposit Bonus.

You'll always get a desposit bonus when you do RB though, like if there is one normally.

You guys are great......thanks. Good cards to ya.
